Bag of Randomness

  • After living through the Dave Campo era with three 5-11 seasons, I always considered a sixth win by the Cowboys a successful season.  It’s gotten that bad.
  • I remember in the early 90’s when the Cowboys had trouble selling out Texas Stadium and I think Kroger use to jump in and buy the remaining tickets for the public so the game can be televised locally.
  • If you are interested in bidding for a piece of Texas Stadium, here you go.  Everything, and I mean everything is up for sale.
  • I found a new TV show Sunday night that might rank 9 out of 10 on the unintentional comedy scale.  It’s basically a dance-off competition that at first I thought was an SNL or In Living Color Skit.  There’s more about the show here along with a video.
  • I watched a JFK special on PBS last night and forgot that Jim Lehrer use to work for the Dallas Times Herald.  I think it’s interesting that both he and Bob Schieffer (a Fort Worth Star Telegram product) have moderated presidential debates in the last two elections, maybe more, but that’s what I remember.  Not bad for a couple of good ‘ol boys.
  • From reading this article, I learned that Obama will be giving up his Blackberry, why presidents don’t email, and that he will most likely be the first president with a laptop.
  • You know the end of a presidency is near when there’s pardon talk.
  • Focus on the Family will have layoffs.  Link
  • An Etch-A-Sketch that draws out the time and erases itself.  Link
  • I Voted for Two – there’s more than one way to interpret that photo.
  • Ten Cars That Sank Detroit.  Link
  • Ten Cars That Could Salvage Detroit.  Link
  • If you are a fan of the CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory, you might like Sheldon Shirts.
